...hard, Republicans hope to present to the voters an image of the G.O.P. as the party of peace and prosperity. But hope is one thing, success is quite another, and party images are often based on long-held feelings and fears that remain almost unchanged in the face of current facts. Thus, by 1952, after three wars under Democratic administrations, the G.O.P. had established itself in the popular mind as the party most likely to keep world peace. The seven peaceful years of the Eisenhower Administration have done little to change that image for better or worse. Last week...

In the current age, God is calling upon us not to desert the eternal Christian truth but to apply it to the changing circumstances of the modern world...
North American College reluctantly shut its doors in 1940 when Italy entered World War II, reopened in 1948 under its current (No. 10) rector, Archbishop Martin J. O'Connor of Scranton, Pa. A North American graduate ('24), Archbishop O'Connor helped raise $4,000,000 for construction of the seminary's present (dedicated in 1953) six-story, brick and travertine building atop Janiculum Hill. A far cry from the old "House on Humility Street," the new college has 307 students' rooms, a 455-seat theater, infirmary, recreation and music rooms...
